You might normally top your pizza with extra cheese, pepperoni, or mushrooms, but have you tried topping your pizza with an egg? I'm particularly enamored of fried eggs on pizza because you get that luxurious runny yolk that mixes in with the cheese and tomato sauce. In some cases, adding an egg to pizza even allows you to pass it off as breakfast. And who doesn't love pizza for breakfast?

If you're looking for ideas, here are 12 ways you can top your pizza with an egg.

David Chang can declare the end of ramen as long and loud as he wants — I'll be slurping noodles and tasty broth until my days are done. And with this illustrated history of ramen, I get to be that much more of a smarty-pants about my favorite noodle bowl. Do you have big feels about ramen? Do tell.

As a competitive swimmer growing up, we used to have "pasta parties" before big meets. (Do kids still do this? Or is carbo-loading not cool anymore?) Whenever we hosted the potluck-style shindig at our house, my mom and I would make fruit pizza for the grand finale. We pressed sugar cookie dough into a pizza pan and, after baking, topped it with cream cheese frosting and a rainbow of fresh fruit.

These days, I like making mini versions for my son and his friends with a vanilla bean-specked frosting and bowls of fresh fruit for DIY decorating. It's a dessert and an art project, all in one.

Earlier this week Emma shared her tutorial for making what I think is the easiest pizza dough out there. Two pantry ingredients plus water, a few minutes to knead the dough, and time to let it rise — it's surprisingly simple. And more than that, pizza dough is surprisingly versatile. It can be used for way more than just making pizzas.

When you really mean it, say it with pizza, as these five cards demonstrate so well. This Parks & Rec card — what occasion is it for? I can think of a hundred, and all more interesting than a birthday. But if you have a birthday or a sweetie-pie to celebrate, try one of these five greeting cards that put pizza first.

Scenario: You and your friend both make or order pizza. You get your slices, and are about to chow down, when your friend whips out a handful of napkins and starts dabbing away at all the grease you hadn't even noticed. Soon, their plate is piled high with orange-stained napkins.

I've always wanted to hug the person who invented the toaster oven. I often use it multiple times a day, from toasting slices of bread for breakfast to baking cookies for dessert.

One of my favorite toaster oven uses is for quick pizzas — especially in the summer, when I don't want to heat up the whole kitchen by turning on the regular oven. To make things even easier, I also skip the pizza dough. Here are five other pizza bases you can use in the toaster oven instead!

We here at The Kitchn are pretty passionate about our pizza. This recipe for everyday pizza dough is one we’ve all worked on together over the years, tweaking something here and adding something there, until finally coming to a consensus. That makes it sound like this recipe might be tricky — it’s not. In fact, keeping it simple was one of our biggest requirements.

This is the dough for your weeknight pizza, and it's the one that went into The Kitchn Cookbook. It’s easy to make, either over a lazy afternoon at home or to stash in your fridge for later, and it’s super easy to roll out. Top it with sauce and cheese, bake until bubbly, and awesome homemade pizza is yours.

This recipe is for all the adventurous pizza eaters out there. The ones who welcome non-traditional toppings — like corn, jalapeño peppers, and chorizo — with open arms. The intrepid pizza eaters who are not afraid to take the road less traveled.

There's no shortage of ways to make pizza at home. But since most of us aren't lucky enough to have a swanky pizza oven, we're left to take our pick between the kitchen oven, the stovetop, or the grill outside.

And for one simple reason, your grill is the best method of the three.
